Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Reviews
You are not just solving puzzles… you are kinda solving your own existence. The game reminds you that real intelligence is not blind obedience, but having the courage to question and search for the truth.
It's just amazing.
Глубоко? Принцип Талоса еще глубже. В конце даже прослезился.

great game, graeat puzzle, great philosophy great think great grea great
this game is visually beautiful, just challenging enough and is filled with bits to make you think. the whole game is one giant puzzle from start to finish. perfect balance of a cozy puzzle game and a complex sci-fi fantasy (that feels all too real these days!).
Одна из лучших игр эвер
The Talos Principle was fun. Way more fun than I was expecting. And I was expecting a lot of fun, so, yeah. It's interesting, intriguing, I wanted to keep going just to know more of the story. the puzzles were great and integrated will into the story (when it was applicable). I had to look a few up, but once I learned how it made sense. There was one that the solution was something I didn't know was a thing I could do, but It wasn't crazy, just something I didn't consider. I don't know if the replayability is super high, the puzzles, sure, I probably remember less than 10%. the story though, It was so good, though part of that goodness was from the unknown. I think it's still worth playing a second time, it's just not quite the same. Still amazing though. The music and the visuals pair fantastic, and with the voice acting and story, I was invested the entire time.
